Cruel

Listen • Purchase

Its 3:00 am and you’re coming home to a cold and empty bed

and in the shadows you can see her silhouette standing there

If you lay still enough you can smell her hair on the pillowcase

and you pick up the phone just to hear her voice say…

"You hide your tears by walking in the rain"

I know you feel like you’ll never love again

and this world can be hard and this world can be cruel

Yes, it’s true I don’t know what you’re going through

maybe someday you’ll tell me what she did to you

You stand so proud people often take you as arrogant

but I know deep down in your heart you’re still a mess

and this town ain’t big enough to hold all your memories

and when I’m in a crowd I know you wish that it was her instead of me

You hide your tears by walking in the rain
